Si Yue felt that Bai Jian had become a very different person. He seemed to have many masks, and every time he put on a new mask, it was very suitable for him, and there was no sense of disobedience.

Maybe it's because he has lived a long time and met all kinds of people, he knows da

"Let's go." Bai Jian looked calm, as if the action of throwing it into the trash can was not done by him.

At this time, Si Yue's emotional intelligence was invincible, and he didn't say anything like "It's a pity to throw away such beautiful flowers", "It's amazing to be rich", "Hehehe, you're jealous again", etc. 80.00% of the things that could attract Bai Jian to make use of it, he walked in Bai Jian Next to him, swinging his arms, "Were you the same as me when you were young?"

In the hazy night, Bai Jian's eyes were warm and moist, "How old is considered young?"

"How old do you mermaids think is young?"

"No more than forty," Bai Jian replied, "It's different from you."

The environment where Si Yue grew up was like an ivory tower isolated from the world to Bai Jian. Although Les Island is literally isolated from the world, it is not really isolated from the world.

No matter it is human beings or mermaids, they have been peeping for a long time and coveted the secret of their longevity. Every month, they can see the wreckage of various ships on the coast, and sometimes they will pick up the wreckage that has been swollen and white like a giant white radish. The corpse of a human or mermaid.

There are many hidden reefs and dangerous shoals hidden below the water surface around Rice Island. Even experienced captains are afraid of such treacherous and changeable sea areas.

Occasionally, a lucky ship will successfully come to Rice Island. At the beginning, the islanders will welcome the guests warmly, but every time the guests come, some islanders will disappear or die.

The reason why the mermaids in Les Island live long is because of the blood and genes in their bodies, there is no mysterious spring water, and there is no such thing as the legendary fruit, which appears more often in film and television dramas.

Besides, the longevity of the mermaids on Les Island is not immortal, it is only a few hundred years longer than ordinary mermaids, but it is enough for them to be jealous.

Because of the seclusion of Rice Island, the boats coming and going regarded them as precious beasts in the mountains, and they would tear up their faces if they couldn't agree. For Rice Island, Bai Jian ignored many lives and was dragged into the undercurrent vortex not far from the island.

When thinking of Rice Island, it is inevitable to think of the ancestors.

He is Bai Jian's teacher, who enlightens him, grants Bai Jian rich knowledge, and teaches him the bottom line and principles of being a human being.The mermaid statues on the island of Les Island are also carved after the appearance of the ancestors.

He is respected and loved by all the islanders of Les Island, and he himself takes it for granted. More than once, he sat on the coast with Bai Jian, looking at the wreckage of the ship's deck that kept hitting the reef, and he smiled: " Look, another boatload of people died."

Later, when he experimented with the islanders of Rice Island, he would smile like this and say the same thing as before, "Look, so many mermen died again."

The evening breeze blows, and the shadows of the trees dance.

Si Yue looked up at Bai Jian, wondering what he was thinking.

Walking to the parking lot, Si Yue stretched out her hand to Bai Jian, "Give me the car keys, and I'll drive."

It was the first time for Bai Jian to take Si Yue's car.

Like Si Yue's character, he can also drive on a rampage, and everything is in compliance with traffic rules.

At this time, there are not many vehicles on the road, and the rush hour for getting off work has passed.

But at night, there are a lot of drag racing parties.

With the sound of the wind, Si Yue put down the car window, and stared at a small fluorescent sports car in her own car, and said frantically, "Why didn't Nuwa pinch a pair of wings for you, otherwise you would sit in the car, you It should be in heaven."

The small sports car obliquely ahead was rumbling, and there was no way someone could hear the scolding from behind.

Si Yue honked the horn a few times, wishing she could unscrew the steering wheel and smash it over.

Bai Jian patted him on the shoulder, "Drive well."

Si Yue glanced at Bai Jian, the car window was slowly raised, he took off his peaked cap, and pulled off his mask, his hair was messed up by the hat, and a few strands were straight up, turning into little hooks.

A large piece of white fish scales appeared behind his ears, very eye-catching. His pupils were no longer translucent white, but completely white, like a pearl embedded in it. When he stared at others, his hair stood on end.

Bai Jian laughed out loud, "Driving a car, why are you so angry?"

Compared with learning speech skills, Si Yue may need to add an emotional training class.

But Bai Jian can understand that Si Yue's hormone level is not stable now, it is easy to be affected, and it is normal to have ups and downs, but Bai Jian is still a little surprised that her eyes turn white from anger while driving a car.

Si Yue squeezed the steering wheel and rattled it. When the green light came on, he stepped on the accelerator and asked, "In school, I asked you if you were like me when you were young. You seem a little unhappy."

If it were someone else, it would be impossible for him to be so sensitively aware of the other person's emotions. Whatever his business, but Bai Jian was different. He could feel a slight change in Bai Jian's eyes, so he didn't need to pay attention to it deliberately.

Bai Jian clasped her hands on her lap, looked at the front of the car, her eyes fell into the night, "I'm thinking about Les Island, I'm thinking about my teacher."

Rice Island is Bai Jane's home.

Swyer paused, "What is that island like?"

Bai Jian's last impression of Les Island was that it was lifeless. All the hidden little mermaids were found out by the ancestors. Every one, young or teenage, died without exception. in the experiment.

Monsters like Jiang Zhiyi can be seen everywhere on the island. As they walk, they will suddenly vomit a large group of scales, attack each other, and gnaw and prey on the same kind in groups at night, so when night fell, Row upon row of shops are all closed and lights are turned on, the smell of rotting meat on the road lingers for a long time, and even the waves hitting the beach have a stench.

In the end, the shops were not closed either, because there were no more mermaids on the island.

The Progenitor's experiment was declared a failure.

"It's similar to Qingbei at that time," Bai Jian calmly answered Si Yue's question, "There are shops, cars, schools, and hospitals. The difference is that there are no humans on Rice Island."

After Bai Jian finished speaking, her tone suddenly paused.

Si Yue felt strange, "What's wrong?"

"I forgot, there is a human being on the island, but I have never seen it before. It is the lover of the ancestor." The Bai family rubbed their joints, trying to think about people and things many years ago.

"I know, there is this person in the data, Bailu also told me that your ancestors also used him for experiments, no," Si Yue changed his voice, "I don't remember exactly what Bailu said at the time, but I I think the ancestor's experiment should be to make mermaids and humans interchangeable, so he experimented with mermaids and humans. The ultimate goal should be to let his lover obtain immortality like him, or to get along with the island. Like the mermaid on the sky, live seven or eight hundred years."

However, it is recorded in the data that the experiment failed, and the human died three days after transforming into a mermaid.

There is no doubt that the ancestor's method was rough and direct, and the experimental conditions at that time were extremely backward. The level of medical treatment in just a few decades was not comparable to that of the present, and it was even more flustered more than a hundred years ago.

Maybe the ancestor was too, and went to the doctor in a hurry?

Si Yue said with emotion, "At that time, the medical treatment was not as good as it is now. If it is done now, it will probably be successful."

Later people sorted out the conversion method after countless experiments. Although no one has succeeded, it does not mean that the method is not feasible, but that very few people can achieve the feasible conversion conditions.

"Born at the wrong time." Si Yue sighed very maturely.

"Hey, Bai Jian, can I find the photo of my ancestor's lover? I want to see it."

"There should be no way to find out. The teacher left him at home and said he was in poor health. No one has seen him, and neither have I." Bai Jian pressed her eyebrows, "Are you curious what he does?"

Si Yue's curiosity has always been strong, but it's rare for someone so far away to be so curious.

"Intuition," Si Yue opened his mouth to answer, "Intuition wants to know."

"I'll check it myself when the time comes." Si Yue didn't plan to continue to bring up Bai Jian's sad past, even if it wasn't a sad past, it was a past that hurt her body and mind.

It wasn't until she got home that Si Yue's eyes became slightly lighter, but the usual amber eyes were no longer there, and a kind of cold pale white lingered in her eyes, which lingered for a long time.

As soon as he entered the door, Ri Xia rushed forward excitedly.

Si Yue picked it up, "Where's the egret?"

Egret sleeps in his fish tank.

Uncle Chen poured water for the two of them, and while Si Yue was drinking, Uncle Chen said beside him: "Director Zhou came here today and finished injecting the remaining needles. The young master has been asleep for several hours. I won't wake up until tomorrow."

Si Yue looked at the egret in the fish tank for a while, and her heart beat suddenly a little faster. The force of these heartbeats was extremely heavy, as if she was about to open her chest and jump out, and even her breathing was suppressed at this moment.

Seeing Si Yue's face suddenly changed, Bai Jian lowered her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

Si Yue came back to her senses and told the truth.

Bai Jian thought for a while, then looked at Uncle Chen, "Has Bailu shown any abnormalities recently?"

"No." Uncle Chen didn't know why Mr. Bai Jian asked this suddenly. When he thought back on Bailu during this period, he really couldn't think of anything different from before. "There is nothing unusual, and the spirit is better than before."

In the fish tank, the purple caudal fin that moves the water surface unconsciously is brighter, more lively and soft than before, and it also appears more powerful when it moves the water surface.

Bai Jian withdrew her gaze, "Please tell me if there is any abnormality."

"Okay." Uncle Chen responded.

The next day is Friday.

Bai Jian was working in the living room, the sun shone through the curtains, and Si Yue was sitting cross-legged by the window, with a laptop on his lap, all he consulted was the data and experimental records of previous human-mermaid conversions, and some of them required verification of identity to enter, that is Secretly not allowed to enter, because Si Yue is not a person related to the experiment at all, how can he get his identity verified by the website?

By the way, I replied to Zhou Yangyang's message.

[Zhou Yangyang: Jiang Zhiyi is hopeless, he is going mad again. ]

[Zhou Yangyang: I pretended to be the same in front of him as before, look at my eyes, are they swollen, /picture/picture. ]

[As soon as I think of him dying, I can't stop crying. He is still like a normal person. He should regret it. He regrets staying at home after he has become sick, otherwise he wouldn't kill him. Uncle Jiang, I didn't dare to ask him what he thought at the time, because I thought later that this question was meaningless, because at that time he could no longer be his own master. ]

[I watched the live broadcast of you going back to school to participate in the welcome party last night, and I even swiped a gift for you in the live broadcast room, and Jiang Zhiyi, the bastard, also swiped it, and swiped it with my account! ]

[Forget it, since he is about to die, I don't care about him. ]

[You find time to come and see us (it’s okay if you don’t come, you can ask someone to buy me something to eat, some soda, spicy fries and potato chips, the birds are gone in my mouth.)]

Si Yue recalled the night when Jiang Shiyi was captured. Jiang Zhiyi in the surveillance had already mutated at that time, but he only knocked out a few members of the experimental team and did not bite.

He didn't hurt anyone in the experimental team, but he killed his own father.

Si Yue watched the webpage loading displayed on the computer screen, and after replying Zhou Yangyang a few words, she saw the message from Cheng Jue.

[I went to the third school for an internship last week. ]

[I think the people in the three institutes are all weird and don't pay attention to me. Is it because I'm a student?Dislike me for delaying things? ]

[I wanted to tell you yesterday, I forgot, do you still remember the last time we went to the third school together, the crippled security guard, he fell from upstairs last week and hit his head on a bump on the wall On the steel bar that came out, the person died at that time, and I was scared to death. ]

[However, the third school is pretty good, and I don’t dislike the disabled. Last time it was a lame security guard, this time it was a dumb security guard. ]

[Also, I'm sending you some photos they took at the party last night. ]

Cheng Jue said there were only a few photos, but in fact, he couldn’t finish the pages he sent. Most of them were photos of Si Yue playing the piano on stage. Since he was wearing a mask and peaked cap, he couldn’t see his face at all. , The person who took the photo was also snapping wildly.

Shoot at different angles, zoom in, legs, neck, fingers, exposed ankles.

And the photos they took while Si Yue and Bai Jian were talking, from the back view, they were blurry, but very intimate, the atmosphere of the photos alone seemed to be bursting with pink bubbles.

Si Yue clicked Save, picked the appropriate ones and replaced them with computer screens and mobile phone screens.

After that, he replied to Cheng Jue.

[Really fell to death? ]

Cheng Jue probably didn't pay attention to the class, so he replied almost instantly.

[Really, why did I lie to you, the steel bar was inserted directly from the back of the head, and then pierced through the middle of the forehead. When the steel bar came out, there was still a white brain flower on the top, which was used by the fire brigade to cut it. The machine cut the steel bar, and the talent carried it away. ]

[Si Yue: Did you see it with your own eyes? ]

[I heard what the teacher said, I only saw them getting out of the elevator on a stretcher. ]

[Is it bloody? ]

[Si Yue: Well, very bloody. ]

[Okay, I won’t talk to you anymore, the teacher asked someone to answer the question, and he looked at me, so he probably has to ask me to get up and answer the question. ]

Cheng Jue went offline, Si Yue was stunned for a while, then looked down at the buffered web page again.

There is not much information about Rice Island, and it will not take long to read all the information that can be found.

Rice Island is more like a small seaside town standing on the vast sea. They have what is available in other places, and they may have what is not in other places.

The dangerous and steep coast has been eroded into strange shapes by the sea wind. The tall and thick palm trees and coconut trees are taller than other places, and they seem to be able to tower into the clouds.

It was more than a hundred years ago, and the photos are all old photos from a long time ago. The color has a retro and bright feeling like an old movie. Women wear all kinds of floral skirts, elegant and intellectual hats, and their hair is curled into The most popular look at the time.

It's the same as some period movies shot now, but the photos are more realistic.

This is a prose written by a later person based on the photos. Several photos are placed between several paragraphs of text. The text layout is crowded, without lines or paragraphs, and some characters are so strange that they are completely unrecognizable. Very strenuous.

The text also mentions the experiments of the ancestors.

The author said that this was undoubtedly a cruel and selfish massacre. If it was for love, then this massacre should be labeled as romantic.

"..."

The author said that the ancestor's lover accompanied the ancestor for more than 20 years. One morning, the ancestor saw a few wrinkles in the corners of his lover's eyes. Only then did the ancestor know that human beings are so fragile and their life span is so short. It seems very precious.

The first ancestor hoped that his lover would be by his side forever. If he could live forever, that would be the best.

So he concealed it from his lover and carried out that selfish and cruel experiment.

"It's as real as it is written..." Si Yue muttered, and continued to read.

On the other hand, the ancestors believed that if the conversion can be free and successful, then people's lives can become better, the world will also become better, and humans and mermaids will usher in a new era.

——Make people's lives better and the world better.

Si Yue found that this sentence appeared no less than three times in this essay.

The length of the prose is not long, and the author doesn't seem to understand what the experiment is like, so he only used a few strokes to write it down, and then entered the final stage.

If the ancestor could live up to now, then he can actually see that the world is already very beautiful.

Unfortunately, he couldn't see it.

On the right is the author's information, a profile picture, only one hand is exposed, and there is a mole on the protruding wrist bone. The pen name is xx, and the age and gender are unknown.

From the author's information, you can also click on the author's personal column. In addition to the one I just read, there is another diary-style article, which is about the love diary of the author and his partner.

Although Si Yue was not interested in this type of article, since he clicked on it, he slid to the end.

The last inscription was more than 100 years ago. The author was either a mermaid or a human. If it was the latter, he must have passed away.

And there is no update later, it is estimated that most of them are gone.

Realizing this, Si Yue liked the article and sent a flower as a gift.

It was almost done, Si Yue clicked the cross in the upper right corner of the page, feeling a little tired after reading it.

He stretched out, leaned against the window, and stared blankly at an oil painting on the opposite wall. The oil painting was framed. On the canvas were large pink and white peonies with green branches and leaves. He looked at it for a while Son, suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at Bai Jian who was processing the documents, "I remember that the sunflowers were hanging there before?"

Bai Jian glanced at the painting, and her eyes fell on the puzzled face of Si Yue, "Do you like sunflowers?"

His tone was half a smile but not a smile, and so were his eyes.

Si Yue blinked, remembering the bunch of sunflowers that boy gave him last night, probably, he should understand why the sunflower oil painting on the wall was removed, he shook his head repeatedly, "I like peonies, that's the color, This style of painting, this frame, exactly eight flowers, I like the number 8."

Bai Jian didn't poke at Si Yue, she obviously liked his trick, although it couldn't be more fake.

"What did you find after looking at it for a long time?" Bai Jian looked down at the document, the pen in his hand didn't stop, and he could still pay attention to Si Yue.

"I didn't find anything," Si Yue was a little disappointed, "What about you, did you find the conversion potions that were researched by which research institute?"

Bai Jian paused, "The target is [-], but there is no definite evidence."

"How did you lock it without evidence?"

"intuition."

"What's wrong?"

"Intuition is right."

"Then let me tell you my intuition." Si Yue closed the computer with a calm expression, "I think there is something wrong with the medicine Zhou Wenxiao gave Bailu."

To be precise, he just felt that there was something wrong with Zhou Wenxiao. From the first day he walked into the other party's office, until now, Si Yue's feelings towards the other party have never changed.

Bai Jian raised her eyes, "We have no right to interfere with Bailu's choice."

Si Yue understands that Bailu wants to live, so whoever catches his hand is a life-saving straw, whether there is a problem with the medicine or not, for him, the difference is not big, it is the difference between living a few more days and living a few days less.

The sun is setting in the west, a piece of dazzling gold is sprinkled outside the window, and the climbing rose is swaying in the wind and growing wildly.

Bai Jian put down the pen, "It's time for dinner, let's go."

The indifference of mermaids is deep in the bones, which is puzzling to human beings, because there is no reason for their indifference to friends and relatives, it is nature.They only experience very short-lived grief, maybe a few hours, maybe a few days, and after a short period of time, they erase the traces of the person who passed away in their hearts like erasing the chalk on a blackboard, As if that person never existed.

And they give almost all their emotions to their future partners, and most of their emotions are only shared with their partners.

Just like the egret is in Bai Jian, Si Yue is in Bai Jian.

Impulsively, Si Yue blurted out, "I will also become like you in the future?"

Bai Jian's footsteps towards Si Yue stopped, and he had some doubts in his eyes, "What kind?"

"After I become a mermaid, will I become like you, indifferent to the life, old age, sickness and death of my friends and relatives?" If this is inherent in genes, then Siyue feels that she must not be able to avoid this change.

But Si Yue is afraid of this change, Wen He loves him, Zhou Yangyang loves him, he should love them equally.

Behind the thin lenses, Bai Jian's eyes were painted with a soft and solemn golden layer by the setting sun. He walked towards Si Yue and pulled Si Yue up from the carpet, "No."

"Ayue, I am indifferent because I have lived too long and will live longer in the future. If everyone's passing away makes me feel so painful, then living will become a painful thing." Bai Jian nodded Touch Si Yue's forehead, "Do you want to live forever?"

Si Yue shook her head subconsciously, "No, I want to die early."

"..."

"It's not too early," Bai Jian smiled. His palms were dry and cool, and when he touched Si Yue's cheeks, he was extremely gentle, just like his eyes and tone, "Stay with me for a few more years."

Looking at Bai Jian's gentle and deep eyes, a white light flashed in Si Yue's mind, he opened his mouth, and the voice came out after a while, "Bai Jian, looking at me like this will make me feel that you will not Like the ancestors, I will do the kind of experiment that can make me live forever."

Bai Jian's palm slid from Si Yue's cheek to his chin, and the mermaid raised Si Yue's chin with her fingers, and her smile deepened, "Maybe."
